[i]"Gas!"[/i] Lucilia spotted Upsah emit gas from his body, and had a small window to act. She knew that it'll only take a few seconds for the entire hall to fill up. Upsah didn't seem to be adversely affected by her own poison attacks, however Khan's debilitated body was still near by. It seemed that the gas somehow wasn't affecting him, likely due to the fact that he had no Achanite left inside of him for her poison to effect. Or so she hopes. However, Upsah's gas will likely harm Khan, as well as Grey. Lucilia knew that she was at a disadvantage, and trying to fight them here and now wasn't a good idea. But she was far from unprepared. [b]"Ha! I have prepared myself and the college for this day! The day when you demonic scum finally decide to show your true colors!"[/b] Lucilia stabbed her sword into the ground, causing vines to grow around her. This protected her from Upsah's mysterious gas, as well as allowed her to move through the floor underneath him. In between the floors were layers of vines and other plant growth, originally just overgrowth from before, but Lucilia had utilized them to allow her to keep eyes and ears everywhere within the college. The fact that she could now use them to fight back was an added bonus. She used these same vines to grab Khan's body, however she would have a hard time getting to Grey as he was in the middle of fighting Heus. The best she could do was erected a wall of wood to block the gas. Even though Upsah had powerful decaying magic, plant life lived off death; just as well as he could decay, she could cause her plants to regrow.

Lucilia took Khan's body away somewhere safe. It was in a pitch black room, devoid of any lights. But for Lucilia, who was able to see in the dark, she could see a group of other humanoids standing in there. Vampires. [b]"Watch over Khan, protect him, and make sure that he stays alive! I have to get back out there and fight. Tell the rest of the others to assist as well!"[/b] Lucilia's body was encased by vines once more as other vampires tended to Khan's injuries, however the best they could do was try to stabilize him and patch up his physical wounds. They had no idea how to treat the poison in his body.

After dropping off Khan, Lucilia returned to where she had fought Upsah. However, she did not reveal herself, instead now choosing not to hold back. [b]"I knew this would happen. I told you all that demons could never be trusted. And yet like fools, they thought demons could change. Be control. Even redeem themselves. What nonsense! There's only one thing we need to do with demons. [i]Kill them.[/i]"[/b] The briar infested hall began to sprout amber from it's tips. At first it was slow, but than it began to gush out. Upsah may try to decay them, but more simply flood the hall faster than his decaying magic could destroy them. And like many of these plants, the Amber fed off demonic energy. It was attracted to it, wanted to eat it, and would not allow it to escape. Even if the Amber couldn't kill Upsah, it would slow him down, perhaps even seal him inside. At the same time, more vines shot out at Upsah from every direction to bind him and capture him. Lucilia wasn't pull any stops, and any time she even felt a slight winded from using her magic, she simply took a small vial of her Ether and restored her mage blood.

[b][center]Tyrael Marchosias[/b][/center]

Tyrael's claw was released as Zaad battled a few of the others. Knowing that they had him taken care of, Tyrael turned towards the other demons. Too many for him to kill, but there was more to him than that. [b]"Khan may be a powerful demonmancer, but I am his equal! Witness true power!"[/b] Tyrael's body began to emanate archanite. It whipped back and forth with extreme temperatures, fluctuating from the heat of the Inferno to the coldness of an ocean's abyss. Soon it all gathered together onto one point, himself, and than exploded outward. All demons within a hundred feet of him suddenly stopped. Stronger ones struggled to move. [b]"I am your master! And I command you... To die."[/b] Systematically, all the demons who could not resist his will turned their weapons upon themselves. He killed hundreds with that single command, causing most of the fights in the dinning hall to drop. There were still some survivors, such as the Flesh Abomination and the Large Demon. But he didn't worry about those small fires; his attention was soon directed towards Zaad. Opening a portal into the Inferno Tyrael drew a [url=http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/4/41521/1057456-kanabool0.jpg]might great club[/url], to shatter the demon and send him back to the Inferno. He hefted the weapon above him and was about to bring it down onto Zaad when Satori stood before him.

[b]"Stand aside Satori. Zaad must be sent back to the Inferno before he harms too many others!"[/b] The smaller mortal shook her head. Her eyes were closed but it was apparent that she was focusing on Zaad. Or rather, using him to communicate with Khan. She knew something was happening to Khan, something that made him defenseless. Neither him nor her knew what was the cause, but she managed to discover that Khan was poisoned, and that the Vampire known as Norschtalen was the cause. She also detected a great amount of pain, and that Khan's other demons have been released and going on a rampage. Or simply have been released, in the case of Upsah and Heus. She could not find Rathel or Olreah before her link to Khan was severed. When she opened her eyes Satori spoke. [b]"You cannot kill Zaad. Something is wrong with Khan... The death of his demons will kill him as well. They need to be stopped, but first Khan must be healed."[/b] Tyrael snorted at Satori's words, but lowered his weapon. He looked at Zaad but knew that his current state was only temporary, but he did not know if, once freed, if Zaad would resume his killing spree. [b]"What do you suggest than, Satori?"[/b]

The pink-haired woman pulled up a chair and sat down, concentrating her thoughts. [b]"Seal his demons. I know you can do that, Tyrael. You know more than I do how you can seal away demons without killing them, or their hosts. I can only tell you that you must not allow them to die. If Khan is safe, we can better concentrate on fighting back. I shall remain here, to provide communication support. I will be speaking to you as well as all the other teachers using my magic... Making sure you are all up to date. If you find any of my students, tell them to allow me to tap into their mind as well, so that I may convey information to them."[/b] Tyrael nodded his head as he began to walk towards the door. Before he was out of earshot, Satori called out to him one more time. [b]"What of Zaad? You know it is only a matter of time before he is freed. I can try to combat him through my mind, but I will have difficulty keeping communication with you."[/b] Tyrael looked towards the glass statue of Zaad. As much as he wanted to smash the demon into the Inferno, until Khan's situation was resolved, that wasn't a smart idea. However, in this state Zaad's prison was fragile. A hard blow, a single crack, and he could be freed. So Tyrael placed his hand onto the area where Zaad's chest was, and burned a rune into the glass. A demonic rune, unlike the ones that Tyrael had on his body. [b]"A seal than. Normally useless against a demon who is at full strength, but right now Zaad is not. He should not be able to escape unless the rune is destroyed. And to ensure that does not happen..."[/b] Tyrael burned another rune into the ground using his magics. This one was an Inferno Rune, which created a column of flames from the Inferno itself. [b]"We will deal with him after this mess. Satori, do keep track of his thoughts. If he thinks of escape, stop him at all cost."[/b] The mortal smiled and nodded. Tyrael nodded back and tore a hole into the Inferno. He jumped in so that way he could avoid having to fight through hordes of demons and get to Khan quicker.

Satori meanwhile began to focus her mind. Through her minds eye she could hear and see the thoughts of everyone on the college. Demons, mortals, golems, and others. So many thoughts were going through her mind that any one else would have gone mad from the sheer amount of voices in their head, yelling and screaming. But Satori just smiled softly at the chaos going through her head. [b]"Now for my part..."[/b]
